My husband and I had a fantastic stay at the Safari Lodge. Our 3-nights booking included 4 game drives at Amakhala and a daytrip to Addo elephant park - we managed go see all the animals in our bucket list including lion, cheetah, giraffe, elephant, zebra, rhino, buffalo and many more. Our ranger Bradley was very knowledgeable and talented in finding the animals, we couldn't have asked for more! The food was tasty and often served as a la carte which we really enjoyed. The service was impeccable and the rooms very comfortable.

We had a wonderful experience in Woodbury Lodge. We loved our guide Roxy who is extremely knowledgeable and an outstanding ranger. She was able to show us lions, giraffes, rhinos, zebras, elephants, all sorts of antilope, monkeys and warthogs. The only animal we didn’t see was a cheetah as they are very rare to spot but Roxy made a huge effort to find it. She had great knowledge on birds and the reserve itself. Her driving skills are excellent! The accommodation itself is wonderful and very clean. Each room has their own terrace overlooking the waterhole where the animals come to drink. Absolutely magical to watch!

We really loved our stay in the camp! Everything was simply perfect. Everyone was extremly friendly and helpful and of course the game drives were the highlights of our stays. Thanks you our guide Don we were able to see a lot of animals from close up - with the litter of lions and the "encounter" of giraffs with cheetah but always with a respectful distance not to disturbe the animals. The view from the tent was also wonderful - with the sunrises as the absolute highlight.

Exceptional experience and superb staff! Only 6 guests in the whole camp and on the game drives. Sleeping in the bush can be a bit unnerving for safari beginners :-)

We loved everything about the property. With only 3 suites it is very peaceful and personal, just what we were looking for. We were made to feel very special during our stay, from the moment we arrived with the short game drive from the car park to the little touches like the chocolates and Induli bracelets on our pillows and the hot chocolate with amarula after the game drive. The hot water bottles for the chilly morning game drives were another unexpected treat. We enjoyed getting to know the staff. Bulela was very knowledgeable about the animals and plants and we really enjoyed his company on the game drives. Thando looked after us very well, always there to greet us and refill our drinks. Elmarie’s food was delicious and we loved chatting to her when she came out of the kitchen. It was great to meet Matt & Anne, the owners and on one evening Matt shared a drink with us and told us all about their dream of Induli and how it came to be. We have been on several safaris and we loved this one the most. We can’t thanks the team enough for giving us such a special and memorable stay We will be back

Stunning place, absolute luxury for tents in the Bush, in the middle of nowhere. Such a treat to live almost alongside the animals (from a safe distance!) and to observe in natural surroundings. Saw so many beautiful creatures and I loved that the lodge was respectful and conscious of the environment in terms of the minimal impact construction of the accommodation (beautifully equipped luxury tents) and yet struck a really lovely balance with comfort and beautiful design. A very special experience that we will treasure forever.

    The staff at Amakhala were very friendly and helpful.

    The staff at Amakhala were very friendly and helpful. The food was excellent. the room was large and when you came back after the second safari they had turned the lights on. folded down the beds and put the heating on. That is a really great touch from the staff. The Park Rangers were very good. We had Jessie and he was very informative and had a great sense of humour. He really did his best to find the animals we all wanted to see and made it a special experience.

    Amakhala Game Reserve is a haven for wild animals and a brilliant place for a safari. Many of the animals used to roam the land 100 years ago before the land was used for farming. In the early 2000's the land was returned to its natural habitat and the animals reintroduced, with the aim of conservation and breeding of endangered species. As it is in a malaria-free area, it is the perfect location for a safari for people who get bitten by mozzies! There were only a few jeeps out on drives at any time, so you rarely come across other people. There are several lodges in the reserve to choose as your base (we stayed at Safari Lodge, which was brilliant).

    The whole experience was amazing. Difficult to put into words. Spectacular views from the lodge, very knowledgeable and professional rangers, great food, extremely friendly atmosphere, very thoughtful touches (like running a bubble bath on return from game drive), wonderful decor.

    Beautiful place, well managed where the staff have massive respect for the animals and care for them, from a respectful distance. Not too many people out on the drives at once which is good as some reserves can get quite crowded - shows good management. Saw all the animals we could have hoped for and got to witness some amazing things, from a close but safe distance. Amazing. Relatively easy to get to too. It is a dirt road leading up to the lodge but easy to navigate even in a very small car which is what we had. Great experience.

    A beautiful and well managed reserve. The landscape and different biomes are interesting to see and the wildlife are abundant. It is not crowded and made us like we where to only people there. Its clear to see that are leaders in conservation management and community engagement.

    The entire Amakhala experience was magical.

    The entire Amakhala experience was magical. Faultless from start to finish. I would suggest that Booking.com inform clients that lunch on the day of arrival is included. Also inform of the length of the drives…4 hrs and 3 hours. Water and cosy ponchos are provided. The attention to detail on this trip was excellent. The food and ambiance were top drawer. Although you can never tell which animals you’ll see, we saw a large number, including a close up lion, on our two drives and 1 night stay.
